10 ways to start using Littlebird's Chat
Your Littlebird Chat is more than just a search bar; it's your personal AI assistant, ready to help you find information, write, brainstorm, and strategize.
This guide will walk you through 10 core use cases. For each one, we'll explain the goal and provide a sample prompt you can try.
Quick tip: Remember, Chat is your Q&A engine. It's currently read-only and does not control or influence other app modules, like Daily Journal or Routines. Also, each new Chat is a fresh start with a clean slate.
Part 1: Find anything, instantly
1. Find anything in your digital world
Your goal: Stop wasting time searching. Find any file, message, or link you've seen, even if you don't remember where it is.
Try this prompt: Think of a link a colleague sent you recently. You don't even need to know who or when. Just ask:
Send me the last link I received on Slack.
2. Recall vague memories (your "second brain")
Your goal: Pinpoint a piece of information from a fuzzy memory without the frustration of manual searching.
Try this prompt: Remember a document you looked at last week, even if you can't recall the exact name. Describe it, and Littlebird will find it.
I was looking at a document last week about our Q4 marketing plan. Can you find it for me?

Recommend more brainstorming type sessions.Now, take these outputs and turn it into a training document and outline that I can use to lead the session. Also, provide me with a user-facing copy I can send to the participants after the session is completed.
6. Brainstorm and ideate
Your goal: Get a creative partner to help you generate new ideas, using your own work as a starting point.
Try this prompt: Ask Littlebird to help you structure your next presentation based on your recent activity.
